Recursion Deluxe 1.2 will bring not only bug fixes and new content, but also a little extra polish on what's currently there.

Here's a sneak preview at some of the new particles we've added to spruce things up a bit!

Here's something I've been wondering about.

I've heard sentiments that some players will get upset if you add more achievements to your game post-launch.

Has anyone had any experience with this?
Let me know your thoughts!

I've been slacking to post my recent work to bluesky. I slapped this together today after reading a reddit thread about failing an interview for not being able to find prime numbers.

Today I was explaining how Gran Turismo on the PSP made use of the console's poor display refresh rate to create a sort of "hardware antialiasing", and I found this great article that shows the (approximated) effect in action :D

What is up my fellow #gamedev people? I've noticed an uptick in engagement here on bluesky!

Seems a lot more active than gamedev mastodon! And we all know twitter is a corpse!

Anyway, here's a GIF from my current #multiplayer thingy with happy balls.
